My wife and I lived in C'ville for a couple years and would stop by here every few weeks. It can get a little crowded as the dining space is on the smaller side but there are generally lines out the door - because the...food is great!More

We have been coming here since they opened (years ago). It's my kids' top spot for flautas. The Peruvian-style rotisserie chicken is great (and the family platter is awesome). It's one of my favorite places for traditional tacos as well. There's nothing fancy about it,...but the food is solid and it has a big following, so don't be surprised if you go at a busy time and it's, well, busy. But the service is fast and the vibe is friendly.More

This year for Thanksgiving we did the unthinkable and ordered two turkeys from Al Carbon. This, not something that is available every day. What a great success! The birds were spit-roasted over hardwood coals and the best we have enjoyed. We also ordered their large...wood-roasted vegetable trays. On a daily basis, their spit-roasted chickens are juicy, tender, crispy, and a very good value. You can buy an entire bird or cut it into a variety of splits. Don't overlook a large variety of sides which are all house-made! This is a family operation and they all work hard to make you happy and we will go back often!More

Fresh, yummy, & cost effective lunch! We told the cashier it was our first time and he gave us a little explanation of the menu. We ended up with the whole chicken (awesome), green salad (basic but great) and plantains (of course fried but not...greasy). The chicken fell off the bone, the sauces were perfect, there was plenty of seating, and the employees were a delight. Very worth us going out of our way. Order at the counter & they call your number service.More

I have eaten this type of rotisserie chicken in Peru and Al Carbon was just like the places in Peru. Taste was great, sauces and sides were excellent. All food was piping hot as well. I definitely recommend the fried plantains as an add on.

You can smell the chickens roasting from across the street. The place is hidden in a small set of shops across 29 from Lowe’s. You can’t see it from the road, but it is SO worth the look. Great chickens roasting all day and the...best sandwich in town!More

The chicken stands out as amazing, but everything was delicious. We love this place. And the prices are unbeatable
